A development partner from another state sent me his version of the VFP application that we are co-authoring. I installed the entire development subdir in the same path as it exists on his machine and I tried to compile it. I receive the Unable to find Visual Class Library -- Locate-ignore-cancel dialog box, but it does not provide the name of the file it is looking for. The project error file contains the following message:
Visual Class Library c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vfp98\ffc\_utility.vcx has the following errors:
Visual Class Library - Undefined
We are both using VFP 6.0 (Unpatched), although he is using the Visual Studio version and I have VFP 6.0 Professional. I have tried a number of things to resolve the problem, including rebuilding the project from scratch, reinstalling VFP, and removing project components until the error went away. Only one form uses FFC libraries. If I remove that form and remove the FFC classes, the project compiles fine. If I remove the form only and leave the FFC classes, I still get the error. If I add the form (after removing it and the FFC libraries), it addes all the FFC libraries to the project and the error reappears. The app seems to run OK, but the error really bugs me.
Any ideas? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
